Wednesday, September 24, 2008 - 09:00 to 19:00 The importance of open source lawyers' practice and knowledge is increasing and we decided to organise an "off" conference exclusively dedicated to the legal analysis of the GPLv3. This conference has taken place in the same venue as PCL, and was translated in French and English. In our program, we decided to firstly analyse the GPLv3 by features (Internationalisation, ASP, DRM/anti-lockdown, Patents, Compatibility, etc..) and secondly, to present the points of view of stakeholders from different industrial sectors.
